In 1888, the people of Jaffa built a clock tower to honor Sultan Abdulhamid II's 25th year on the throne. This episode traces the tower's construction, its role as a civic landmark in late Ottoman Palestine, and its destruction in 1948. We explore the broader context of the Hamidiye clock towers erected across the empire, the local fundraising and design by Jaffa's Muslim and Christian communities, and what the tower's loss reveals about the erasure of shared heritage. Along the way, we touch on the Saraya police station, the 1908 Young Turk Revolution's impact on the city, and the tower's place in Jaffa's transformation from a port town to a bustling Ottoman center. The story of the Jaffa Clock Tower is a microcosm of Palestine's layered history—Ottoman, Palestinian, and ultimately, a casualty of war. #JaffaClockTower #OttomanPalestine #SultanAbdulhamidII #HamidiyeClockTowers #Jaffa #Saraya #YoungTurkRevolution #1893 #1948 #PalestinianHeritage #LostArchitecture #OttomanArchitecture #MiddleEastHistory #FexingoHistory #19thCentury #PalestineHistory #History #CulturalErasure Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
